| 摘要： | So I finally let a Tesla drive me the other day. My brother, who has the Model Y mid-size SUV, bought a one-month full self-driving beta subscription for $200 (full price $15,000) and conveniently waited until his wife was out of town to test it out - because she was too scared to be in the car when he did. I was scared too, but my son was giddy with excitement as if he was about to ride a roller coaster. I chose to sit in the back seat, as I did not think my heart could handle letting the car take the controls on the way to the golf course. And off we went. Everything started out great: The car easily and smoothly made the first turn around my brother's curved street in the development where he lives. Then, we got to a main crossing street with traffic, and that's when I started squeezing the door handle a little tighter. My brother had his hands lightly on the steering wheel, ready to take control back if he needed to. Interestingly, and spookily, the car fully stopped and then crept up like a cat as if it was cautiously peering down the street to see if all was clear. None of us liked the creeping; it left us very uneasy. And with a car coming, rather than risk it and get T-boned, my brother took control. This happened at every cross street; we'll never know if the Tesla would have made the right decision because we didn't have the guts to find out. |
